well, really not much you can do to fix stripped holes at that point....even if you buy a new axle housing, its gonna happen again...guaranteed... unless you want to epoxy the chubs on, but then if they break you are screwed anyway....

CA glue. Tire glue. Super glue. Whatever. Put a blob in the hole.

i did the ca glue but it didnt hold for long.i have heavy ssd steel wheel on it and im sure that isnt helping. boom racing c-hubs. its almost like the inner diameter of the c hubs could be a tad bit smaller. im sure its a possibility with cheaper parts.

Drill/tap more screws around the C-Hub. Also, E-6000 glue dries flexible but holds. I've used that before with good luck. Will peel off if you need to remove c-hub. Found at most retail stores.
